Title: towing issues
Post by: screamin86 on October 07, 2010, 02:15:59 pm

Well I'm getting rid of my 82 trans am this coming sunday and have to haul it about 70miles from my house and I called uhaul and they will not rent me a trailer because they do not recomend it! On paper they said that my k10 cannot haul a 82 trans am even though I told them it had no motor or transmission. I'm kinda aggervated right now and need to find a trailer for a resonable price to rent before saturday afternoon.

Rent a car dolly, or go back and tell them you lined up a Duramax to pull it with.

They wouldn't do it with a dolly either. A friend of mine is going to ride up with me in his cummins though and we are going to pick it up with it lol.

I thought you were towing your 78 Ford Pinto?
(it's much lighter than your T/A).

Lmao! Well when I punch in the numbers on the uhaul website it will let me do it if my car had the iron duke in it but not with a v8. The thing is the car has no motor or transmission even in it lol.

Well I'm sure they will but the problem is there are so many diff uhaul locations around me but finding one that has a hauler is the problem. Out of 3 I called today plus the 1800 number no one could tell me which branch had one.
